When was it that you got started here on steem? Was there a period that you felt discouraged first?

I just wrote a book in a comment and it's gone.

No, I'll just re-type it in a bit, I've been swamped today, so it'll be a couple hours...

No problem! You can just continue along with our conversational thread! I hope you don't mind, but with the amount that we have been interacting recently, I feel like we are friends!
And I am very interested about those first impressions and perhaps failed attempts!

I feel the same, plus it will be great for points in the engagement league I just joined.... Here's the general gist of what I had before.
I received my account March 5th this year, after waiting almost 4 weeks for the account. I didn't do a whole lot for a couple months. I visited the site and was trying to get a feel for it and figure out how and what to do.
I was a little intimidated and depressed at first because I'm not a great writer or content producer. Then I happened across the musing.io dApp and thought I can do this. I'm good at answering questions, and it's much easier than creating something. I posted a few answers to some questions which got me started (don't think I even had a payout). Then I posted an introduction post on 5/18.
I experimented with a lot of stuff in the couple months after that, everything from bid-bots to restream services, several dApps, joining a lot of contests, and communities on discord, it just wasn't really clicking. Then on 7/18 I made it to 15 sp, so I decided to give away some SBI as a celebration to some people who had helped me out along the way and ended up turning it into a competition, the Thank You Economy. The contest went well, and we are in our fourth week, @rentmoney put me it in the @pifc contest and I ended up entering the @pifc contest as well,(won that one) which basically exploded my engagement. I think this is the main reason I have been able to go from 15sp to 61sp in 30 days. I have found that engagement is my key.
I was also picked up by the Mesopotamians @doctorworm project that @tcpolymath has started, basically to help boost new users. It basically gives me a .12 upvote for my posts and has some mentoring and project support.
One highlight is that I won around 6 steem from @papa-pepper's wild and strange contest. This funny guy, who is awesome at engagement helped me come up with an excellent idea and it won.

Wow! That's a great story! Sounds like a lot of cool users connected with you!
I also didn't really post much for about two months while I figured out what this site was all about.
A lot of people have said that commenting is the key for newer users, but I also thought you did very well with your goldenseal article. Even though it might not make a lot of money, do you think that posting articles still has some value?
